New Lion Peter

Lion President John Boulton takes another new Lion Peter Burr through the Lionistic investiture ceremony. Lion Peter has worked and supported various local organisations and charity groups in our community, recently retiring from being 'Community Champion' for a well known Wetherby supermarket. He has various interests including scuba diving, sailing, following Formula 1 motor racing and is currently researching his family history. One of Peter’s initial projects is to prepare a new event for the Club so look out for it as it could be a real ‘Bull’s Eye’ for everyone to get involved in – more details coming soon on this News Blog.
